Hi again,
The before mentioned problem is solved. I found an old thread by John Hermanson
where he described the procedure. The foot is fixed now.
After I opened the flash, however, my first thought was "holy sh..!!!" What an
odd design.To fasten the 4 tiny screws holding the foot, you have to virtually
dismantle the whole thing: capacitor (I checked carefully whether it was
charged or not. It was'nt), circuit boards and a plastic flap. Getting these
back into the right position without queezing any wires is quite a job.
And then I discovered another problem: a small tilting thingy (engaged by a
spring) behind the calculator panel is broken off. Is this the one telling the
flash to go fully automatic with the camera? Do I need to bother about it? So
fare all my pictures with TTL have been exposed properly.
Any hints out there?
Bernd
